Peter had won a contest promoted by a Waltermore radio station.
The first prize entitled him to enter the Union Trust Bank,
and gather up as much money as he could lay his hands on within five minutes.
Because he could not bring any large sacks or boxes into the bank,
all the money had to be placed in his pockets.
As the time went by, Peter ran about wildly and tried to pick up as many large bills as he could find.
When his time was up, he was out of breath, but was $5,000 richer.
Questions 29 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
29. Why did Peter go to the Union Trust Bank?
30. What was Peter’s job?
31. What did the guards do when Peter started gathering the money?
32. Why didn’t Peter take more money from the bank?
